The Heiress's Revenge のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Coming to Sophia’s company wasn’t what I had planned. But it seems her father really wanted his daughter to be happy. I haven’t married Sophia just because I need to be the next successor of my granny’s properties. But because there’s a space in my heart for Sophia.Marcus was right. I’m in love with Sophia. And I’ll do everything to prove it to her.“So, are you going to come?” Mr. Lancaster had asked over the phone.Marcus stared at me for a while, my eyes darting from his to the door. “Let’s go,”And now that we are here with Ethan Carter, who has suddenly shown up as a regards of me breaking his Deal with the V&K Enterprise. I couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.“I thought you were a man.” I started, stepping in front of Sophia and her father. “But here you are whining like a baby,” I scoffed, staring at Ethan’s pained face.His mother looked bitter and angry. A face that depicts pain and sadness. I watched her clenched fist as her eyes darted from me to Sophia, and bac

The only thing on my mind was how to make Sophia happy. A woman like her deserved someone better. Not just anyone. And the fact that she has chosen me, and her father has entrusted her into my hands. I need to prove that I was worthy of her.“Marcus,” I snapped while he quickly bowed his head.“What were you thinking about?” “Nothing,” he smiled, before handing out the files to me.It’s another Monday morning. A week has passed, and our honeymoon has been a wonderful one. I’ve never had so much fun as I did. Upon getting to the office, I started to dish out everything to Marcus. But in the end, I noticed that his attention had been divided. He wasn’t concentrating, nor was he even listening to whatever I was saying. I could see some fatigue on his face. And not just that, his face looked pale and saggy.“Do you need a break, Marcus? I could give you–”“No,” he replied abruptly. I stared at him for a while, but realised he wouldn’t even look at me for a second. It was very unlike

At this point, I knew I needed some undercover agents who didn’t belong to my firm.As far as I know, Marcus knows almost all my undercover agents, except the one I’m on the phone with. I needed more hands on deck, and I need the ones Marcus doesn’t know.“Sophia, are you there?” “Hello! Babe?” Realising that I didn’t hear anything from the other side of the phone, I hung up the phone.The journey back home was a long one, and I couldn’t just wait to reach my destination. Just as the pilot announced that we were landing, I couldn’t contain my joy. Bidding my personal assistant goodbye, I made my way towards the car and headed back home. Upon getting back, it was dark already, and I’m sure Sophia would have slept. But I was wrong.She was only lurking in the dark, but immediately I opened the living room door, her voice caught me off guard. “Hi babe,”“Who are you, Alexander Reid?” She asked, breaking into tears.Casting my bag to the couch, I approached her slowly, but she woul

“Shhh…” “Please,” I muffled against his hand. Not until the lamp beside the bed came on.Only to see Alexander staring at me in the dark, his shirt slightly open.“You are back? I thought you said…” I wasn’t done talking when he kissed the words off my lips.I whirled my hand around his neck, deepening the kiss with my tongue sliding in and out of his mouth. It’s been two weeks since we both had sex. It has been from one issue to another.From my health issues to his grandmother. And now, we finally have some moments to ourselves.Not that the issue has been solved, but sometimes the body wants what it wants.And luckily for him, I was in one of my sexy lingerie sets. I had only put them on because the heat was just too much. “I love you, Alexander Reid,” Sophia replied almost immediately. “I love you, too.” Sliding his hand beneath my lingerie, he ripped it off. My nipples stood proud, tightening up at just one touch from him. Fumbling my hand through his shirt, he stepped aw

“You are not answering me, Alexander!” I bellowed, anger palpable in my voice.Alexander scrambled to his feet. Holding my hand tighter, he cried out. “I know I’ve wronged you, but can we start again? There’s a lot I want to say to you,” Tears rolled down my cheeks as I looked down on Alexander, whose hand was still on my feet.Hindering me from going further, he pleaded more. I scoffed in disbelief, trying to make do of everything that’s happening.“Are you even listening to yourself?” I yanked his hands off. “My nudes are out there, thriving on the internet–”“I’ll try as much as possible to make sure I stop it all. I can tell you everything you need to know.” “Alex, do I look like I care? It’s none of my business!” I screamed in total anger. Pushing him off, I made my way up the stairs, and quickly I launched towards the wardrobe.“What are you doing? You signed a contract, Sophia.” “Are you now forcing me against my will?” I flinched, my heart racing faster.“I’m not breakin
